You've seen the ads for years - Stuff Envelopes $10 each, become an overnight millionaire. Here's the goods.
Basically it's the easiest mail order business to start. You simply place advertising in magazines and newspapers
(stuff envelopes - $5 to $10 a piece for each envelope stuffed or mailed). Send $49.95 to (your P.O.Box or
mailing center). THIS IS WHAT YOU WILL RECEIVE. A letter about the same as above. You simply copy the letter and
mail it out and collect $49 bucks. Usually, your asked to split the profit with the one you got the letter from.
Is it legal? As long as both parties are happy but for just a few dollars you have a business. Most likely
you would have to spend $100 dollars in advertising to make $10 or $15 if you're lucky. A $1000 ad might bring
you your $1000 back plus make $150. These small ads are not always cheap. About $1500 hundred for a one inch
ad in a popular magazine. If you see the same ad in your favorite magazine by the same company all year, it
is most likely they are making money. Some marketing companies spend $100,000 on these low-tech ads and businesses
a week earning their money back and $15,000. A 5% return is still good. A 50% return is not unheard of.
Some grocery stores only get a 5% return. Scam? If you can start this business, why not just find a wholesaler or
distributer and sell the consumer a real product or service. A lot of mail order business's start out this way.
Can you make this legal? Of course. Stuffing envelopes involves a large range of options. All mail being sent
through the postal service is considered stuffing envelopes. From business startup info to ads, coupons and catalogs.
So don't be discouraged. When you see an ad for a business opportunity, and they ask to send money
with no idea what the business is. It's probably a plan to write a business plan. Basically, you get nothing.
Assembling products at home means you have to buy the supplies to make the product and sell it yourself.
Low-end mail-order opportunities magazines and publications are a good place to start advertising your own
opportunities because it's cheaper and all readers or subscribers are trying to start a business
or looking for a product to sell.
GOOD LUCK
